People post mixes here and on Facebook all the time thinking the are a basenji or a mix.. This one is one of the few that really might be! She's probably mixed but I have seen purebred capped basenjis and ones with heavy ticking. A dna test would be interesting!
Her ears look a bit more rat terrier than basenji and the breeds have such a similar look that they get mistaken for each other a lot. I have a friend with a red/white standard rat terrier (show dog) who had a docked tail and is constantly mistaken for a basenji.

Currently we have two cats and one hamster (yes she will be kept safe and in a high place). We are excited to meet fellow owners and hopefully even some in our area.

Welcome to the site. It's so much fun reading about these exceptional dogs and their owners. You will learn a lot of interesting stuff. My labrasenji and I live in Frederick, MD, not too far away. I just met a lady in my doctor's office who has a purebred basenji so they're around but quiet.:D Have fun with this site.
